An unsurpassed variety for large and small farms - Raspberry Popsicle F1 tomato: reviews and description

Raspberry miracle is a whole series of hybrid tomatoes of 15 varieties. Tomatoes have attractive appearance and pleasant taste, and their ease of care makes them a real boon for vegetable growers and consumers. Before planting this variety, familiarize yourself with its characteristics and study the “pitfalls” (if any).

Origin of tomatoes Raspberry miracle

The tomatoes were obtained by breeders from Gardens of Russia. The work was completed more than 12 years ago, as a result of which 3 series of tomatoes of 5 varieties each with individual characteristics were identified.

After receiving a gold medal in 2014 at an agricultural exhibition, all tomato varieties were included in the State Register of Vegetable Crops. The selection of tomatoes did not stop there.

Raspberry Miracle tomatoes have strong immunity and resistance to a number of diseases. These varieties have taken root well in all regions of Russia and provide a rich harvest at minimal cost.

Features of agricultural technology

If you know some features, it is not at all difficult to grow an excellent harvest. You will need fertile and high-quality soil that can nourish the growing Golden Raspberry Miracle tomatoes. Reviews from gardeners recommend preparing the soil in the fall.

To get a strong, tall plant and large fruits, you need to mix humus, sand and garden soil in equal proportions.

Main characteristics of the line

The raspberry miracle is classified into 3 series of 5 varieties. Tomatoes are grown both in open ground and in greenhouse conditions. They are actively used by vegetable growers and consumers for freshly prepared dishes and preservation.

General characteristics for all varieties of the line:

• weight of tomatoes – 100-500 g;
• fleshy core;
• some seeds in the middle;
• the peel is smooth and even;
• moderate ribbing;
• dry matter in high concentration.

These varieties are united by a deep crimson hue and high yield even with sudden changes in temperature and insufficient watering. The largest tomatoes appear where the lower leaves are located, medium and small fruits - in the upper part of the plant.

The high quality of vegetables is beyond doubt; the main thing is to follow the basic rules of planting, care, harvesting, transportation and storage.

Productivity and fruiting

If you follow the rules for growing the Raspberry miracle, you can harvest a good harvest every summer. During the season (90-100 days) you can collect 5-10 kg of fruits from one bush. This indicator is not significantly affected by weather conditions, including a sharp drop in air temperature.

The fruits weigh 100-500 g each, depending on the selected variety. The skin is dense and does not crack. A vegetable grower can safely count on a rich harvest; the main thing is to increase watering during the fruiting period.

Area of ​​application of fruits

Tomatoes are used fresh and processed. Thanks to their thick skin, they are stored in the refrigerator for a long time and become a useful ingredient in salads. Raspberry miracle is used for preservation: small fruits are rolled up whole or processed to produce juice, paste, vegetable salad, dressings for first courses and sauces.

Vegetable growers use this variety for personal consumption and put it up for sale. This is explained by the high yield: it’s enough for a family to eat the Raspberry Miracle and make a profit.

Resistance to diseases and pests

Raspberry miracle is immune to late blight (fungi) and has good immunity. But this does not mean that, like other plants, they do not need prevention. It is better to stock up on special anti-fungal products in advance to protect the tomato bushes and the entire garden as a whole.

To avoid infection, it is advisable to remove the lower leaves of tomatoes, promptly remove weeds from the area, and regularly loosen the soil to enrich it with oxygen. You cannot plant Raspberry Miracle in areas where potatoes, bell peppers, and eggplants previously grew.

When planting the Raspberry Miracle, make sure that there are no potatoes in the neighborhood, otherwise the yield indicators will drop significantly.

How to grow tomatoes

After the end of morning and night frosts at the end of May, the seedlings are planted in a permanent place, which is chosen in the fall. Crop rotation and lighting are taken into account. Before planting, the soil is loosened, dug up, manure and humus are added. Then cover with film to better warm the soil and maintain the desired level of moisture.

Tomatoes are planted in warm but not hot weather, early in the morning or in the evening.

Landing

Tomatoes from the Raspberry Miracle hybrid group are planted in the ground after 60 days. The seedlings should have 5-6 leaves. They are planted in a checkerboard pattern, the distance between the bushes is 50 cm, the row spacing is about 60 cm. This makes it easier to care for them and harvest, and the sun illuminates the plants better. Be sure to install supports for the bushes immediately after transplanting.

The seedlings are placed in the holes along with a lump of earth. Excess roots are pinched off. Peat pots with tomatoes are placed in the hole. Then it is filled in, the soil is compacted and watered, and mulched with peat.

Care

Only with proper care can you get a high yield of Raspberry Miracle hybrids. During the growing season, tomatoes need regular watering, fertilizing, and weeding. The plant should be watered once a week, but abundantly, with warm water heated in the sun.

Before the ovaries form, use about 4 liters of water under the root. When the fruits appear, the plants are watered twice a week with 3 liters of water.

Loosen regularly to prevent crusts from appearing on the surface of the soil, and feed the roots. Experts recommend forming 2 stems. Remove shoots and pinch shoots every week.

Reference. Plants grow greatly over the course of a season; constant staking is recommended for them.

The plant is responsive to fertilizing; it is recommended to fertilize it 3-4 times during the summer. Use superphosphate, peat, manure, and ash to apply at the root. The first feeding is carried out with “Nitrophoska” 21 days after planting - 1 tbsp. l. drug per 10 liters of water. For the second feeding, use 20 g of superphosphate and potassium salt per 10 liters of water.

Features of cultivation and possible difficulties

Tomatoes love light. When there is insufficient light, plants’ growth and development slows down and fruits do not form. This problem often happens when growing seedlings: the seedlings begin to stretch, the stems become thin. To prevent this from happening, do not allow dense plantings.

Maintain optimal humidity. If there is a lack of moisture in the soil, the leaves curl and the fruits are affected by blossom end rot.

Sharp changes in soil moisture during the period of fruit ripening do not affect the group of hybrids: the fruits of the Raspberry Miracle do not crack.

Lack of moisture during flowering leads to the fall of flowers and ovaries. If there is excess moisture before flowering, the plant grows vigorously. The bushes are tied to supports so that they do not break when the fruits ripen.

Diseases and pests

Raspberry miracle tomatoes are disease resistant and not susceptible to late blight. But you shouldn’t forget about prevention.

Maintain crop rotation, do not plant after nightshade crops, next to potatoes. Thin out the plants, remove the lower leaves, weeds, and loosen the soil. Treat with fungicides.

To combat insect pests, use insecticides, folk remedies: ash, onion and garlic infusions, tobacco. To combat the fungus, the bushes are sprayed with Bordeaux mixture, copper sulfate, and special chemical and biological agents.

Rules for planting and growing

This tomato variety provides a rich harvest and quickly adapts to new climatic conditions in the southern lands and northern regions of Russia. With proper care, it bears fruit in any weather.

To get a strong and healthy plant, first plant the seeds, and then the seedlings in open ground or a greenhouse. The yield of the vegetable does not decrease depending on where it is grown.

In this video you will learn about the important features of growing Raspberry Miracle tomatoes in a greenhouse and open ground:

Seed preparation

After purchasing, open the package and carefully examine each grain. Remove spoiled seeds; they will not bear fruit anyway. Then prepare them for planting, following these rules:

• Irrigate the soil of the container with potassium permanganate (make a pink solution).
• Treat the seeds with Ecosil, Baikal EM-1.
• Dry the grains naturally.

Choose warm weather to plant seeds. The optimal period is from March 1 to March 10. This time may vary (from February to March) depending on the climatic conditions of the region.

Planting seeds for seedlings

To ensure that the seeds are taken and the seedlings do not disappear, first prepare the soil and container. Primary requirements:

• The soil is fertile and soft. It is better to choose a mixture of garden soil, peat, sand, humus, and compost from plant waste.
• The container is shallow but wide. After sowing the seeds, cover it with cling film and keep it in a warm place.

Planting seeds at home is done in the following sequence:

• Make not deep holes - 0.5-0.7 cm.
• Drop 20 seeds into each.
• Sprinkle no more than 1 cm of soil on top.
• Water thoroughly.
• Keep in a warm place at 18-25 degrees.

Moisten the soil daily with a spray bottle. The first leaves appear after 7-10 days.

Seedling care

When the first ovaries appear, remove weak and lifeless shoots. Observe the seedlings daily and trim them. As a result, there will be from 7 to 10 strong plants left in the container, which you can plant in separate pots or thin out so that there is a space of 10x10 cm between them.

To grow seedlings, observe the following conditions:

• Temperature regime . Maintain at 18-25 degrees.
• Increased humidity . Spray the plants 1-2 times a day.
• Good lighting. Place the container with seedlings on the south side of the apartment.

If the room is dominated by shadow, additionally use artificial lighting - lamps. Without light, seedlings grow poorly and wither, which subsequently negatively affects the yield.

Preparing the soil and transplanting seedlings

Prepare soil for seedlings in the fall. To prepare it you need sand, compost, and garden soil. Mix these components in equal proportions and store in the basement until the start of the season. Before sowing, water the soil with a pink solution of potassium permanganate or freeze it.

Transplanting seedlings is appropriate when the air temperature has stabilized and the likelihood of night frosts has already passed. If this rule is violated, the root system dies and the plant does not produce a harvest.

Sequence of actions when planting seedlings:

• Dig a hole to a depth of 12-15 cm.
• Place a dose of fertilizer.
• Water generously.
• Plant the seedling and at the same time place the stick vertically.
• Bury the seedlings with soil and water.
• After a week, tie the seedling to a stick.

Provide a distance between adjacent bushes - 60 cm, in rows - 70 cm.

Reviews from gardeners

Ekaterina, 27 years old, Moscow region

Every year we plant tomatoes at our parents’ dacha. Last year, one of the varieties for planting was the Raspberry Miracle tomato; according to gardeners, it is distinguished by its early ripening and unpretentiousness. The seeds showed good germination. The seedlings were transferred to open ground in early June. The fruits grew large and fleshy and were good for salads and tomato juice.

Valentina, 38 years old, Ekaterinburg

For several years now, tomatoes from the Raspberry Miracle series have been planted without fail. The seedlings always sprout together and do not get sick. Even in cold summer conditions and constant dampness, tomatoes grow quickly and do not get sick. The fruits do not ripen at the same time, so they need to be picked periodically. All fruits are smooth, beautiful and very tasty. The largest tomato weighed 600 g.

Alexander Viktorovich, 68 years old, Novosibirsk

Tomatoes are a must-have vegetable to grow on my property. Last year I chose Raspberry Miracle tomatoes based on the description. As a result, I planted several varieties included in this series. The Raspberry Dream variety turned out to be the most productive; I harvested 10 kg of tomatoes from its bushes. I liked the Sweet Raspberry tomatoes; the bushes were simply strewn with fruits. Tomatoes grew up to 2.5 m in height. I will definitely tie them up and tie them up.

Tomato care

The plant grows quickly. Leave 2 stems at a time, and cut off the remaining shoots as they appear. To increase productivity, do not forget about the standard set: regular watering, weeding, mineral fertilizing, weed removal, preventive measures against diseases and harmful insects.

Basic rules of care:

• Moisten the soil with drip irrigation.
• Loosen the soil after pre-moistening.
• Choose superphosphates as a top dressing.
• Fertilize the soil with manure, peat, and wood ash.
• Tie the stems to the trellis and other supports.

Watering tomatoes

For Raspberry Miracle tomatoes, use the drip irrigation method. Equip a tape system that will constantly maintain the moisture the root system needs for accelerated growth.

During the fruiting period, tomatoes need a lot of water - about 3.5 liters per 1 square meter. m. If they grow in a greenhouse, water them generously in the morning, in sunny weather. When growing outdoors, it is better to postpone watering to the evening so that the water does not evaporate quickly.

Weeding

To increase aeration rates, surface loosening of the soil is necessary after each watering. Do not allow a crust to form, otherwise the supply of oxygen to the soil will be disrupted and fruit growth and ripening will slow down.

Immediately after planting and for the next 7 days, loosen the soil to a depth of 12 cm, then no more than 8 cm. This is important so as not to damage the overgrown root system. The soil at the base of the bush should always be fluffy.

Mulching the soil (surface coating of the soil with special compounds) will help improve humidity and temperature.

Top dressing

For fertilizer, choose special complex preparations, tree resin, peat, humus, and manure. As a top dressing, dissolve dry superphosphate in water according to the instructions, which is especially important during the fruiting period (to increase productivity).

Bush formation

Move the bushes away from each other, do not plant them too closely, otherwise they will lack warmth and light. Tie tall bushes to a support during active growth throughout the growing season.

Timely pinching, pinching the growing point and forming bushes also increases the yield. It is better to immediately tear off the lower leaves close to the ground. This will enhance plant growth and prevent the development of fungus.

Harvest and storage

You can start harvesting in the summer months (June to August). The first fruits are the largest and go to sale. In the future, small tomatoes are used by gardeners for preservation. At a temperature of 13 degrees, the entire crop is harvested, as the taste deteriorates.

If the fruits are ripe, they can be stored for up to 3 days without compromising their integrity. If tomatoes need to ripen, they are kept in a warm, dry place for up to 7 days. Seeds for future seedlings are selected from large specimens. Shelf life – up to 10 years.

Rules of care

A tomato needs the right approach to growing.

To get a wonderful harvest, you need to follow some rules:

1. Regular and, to the extent necessary, abundant soil moisture. It is recommended to use a drip irrigation system.
2. After moistening, you need to loosen the soil a little.
3. Feed the plant with superphosphate (powder or dry granules).
4. Fertilize the soil with peat, manure, wood ash and complex preparations.
5. It is necessary to tie a tall bush to a trellis.
6. the plant needs to be formed into one or two stems.

Diseases and harmful insects

Tomatoes are resistant to late blight. Plants can be harmed by:

• Dry brown spotting. Leaves are corroded by brown spots.
• Apex rot. The tops of unripe fruits begin to rot.
• Brown spot. Brown spots appear on the underside of the leaves; the plaque is difficult to get rid of.

Tomatoes can also suffer from whiteflies and tomato moths, and plant aphids and spider mites even leave a velvety coating on the leaves. You can destroy microbes with complex preparations, but it is better to take preventive measures in a timely manner.

The nuances of growing in open ground and in a greenhouse

When growing tomatoes in open ground, the fruits are healthier and stronger. Infections with nightshade diseases are excluded.

Seedlings are planted in a greenhouse a month and a half after germination, preventing the plants from being “stretched.”

Row spacing is 80 cm, the distance between tomatoes is 50-60 cm when growing tomatoes with 1 stem, and 70 cm when growing with 2 stems. Avoid dense planting to ensure light and air ventilation.

If fungal infections appear, stop watering . Severely affected plants are removed, the remaining ones are treated with fungicidal preparations. The most effective antifungal agents for plants are Fundazol, Maxim, and Skor.

The greenhouse should be ventilated after each watering, avoiding excess moisture and drying out of the soil under the bushes. Otherwise, the plants will grow poorly, the leaves will curl and wither.

The main stages of growing tomatoes

Raspberry ringing tomatoes are grown by seedlings according to the usual scheme.

• Soil preparation. You can buy ready-made soil for seedlings, or prepare a mixture of 1/2 soil, 1/2 humus/peat and add a little sand. Before sowing seeds, warm the soil to a temperature of 22-25 degrees, fill the container with it (wooden boxes, plastic containers or cups must have drainage holes).

Tomato seeds Raspberry ringing

• Seed preparation. To be sure of the purity of the seed, it is better to buy seeds from trusted manufacturers. Before sowing, they need to be soaked in a solution of potassium permanganate (cherry color) for 2-3 hours, then rinsed with clean water and, without drying, embedded in the prepared soil to a depth of 2cm according to the 2x2cm pattern. Moisten the top of the crop with warm water, cover with film or glass, and place in a warm, well-lit place. When the first shoots hatch, remove the coverings.

When 2-3 true leaves appear on the sprouts, the seedlings are picked and pinched into a separate container. 10 days after transplanting the seedlings, you need to fertilize with complex mineral fertilizers. Water the seedlings with warm water as needed.

Landing in the ground

Seedlings are planted in greenhouses or under film covers 60 days after seed germination, and in open ground a week later. Two weeks before this, they begin to harden it by taking it outside for several hours (provided there is warm, windless weather). Seedlings are planted in the ground according to a 50x70 cm pattern.

Raspberry ringing tomato seedlings are planted at the age of about 60 days in a greenhouse, in open ground - a week later

Plant care is usual: watering, weeding, loosening the soil - as necessary, fertilizing 2 times with a complex of minerals. Shape the bushes into 1-2 stems, carry out partial pinching, and be sure to tie them to vertical supports or trellises.

Disease Prevention

The variety is considered very resistant to the main types of diseases, but, in any case, it is better not to wait for the first symptoms of plant damage, as this immediately inhibits development and negatively affects the harvest. That is why it is better to carry out preventive spraying of tomatoes with microbiological preparations in advance.

Spraying tomatoes should be carried out to prevent diseases

Characteristics and description of tomato Raspberry ringing

Raspberry ringing F1 is a first generation hybrid. Thanks to the efforts of breeders, hybrids usually have high quality indicators, but their seeds are sterile and every year you need to buy new ones from trusted producers to be sure of the genetic purity of the seed material.

Hybrid "MZ" F 1 is a pure determinant, its bushes develop to a certain stage, when ovaries form, the bush matures, stops growing and directs all its forces to the development of fruits.

The bushes are medium-sized, from 50 to 100 cm in height, powerful, with a developed root system. It is best to form 1-2 stems and be sure to tie them up so as not to damage the plant under the weight of the fruit. The ovary clusters are formed starting from the axil of the 5-6th leaf and at intervals of 2 leaves, up to 7 clusters in total, each with 5-7 fruits.

The small-sized tomato bush Raspberry Ringing is capable of producing a generous harvest

The fruits are smooth, round in shape, large, without a green spot around the stalk. The pulp is juicy, watermelon-sugar, aromatic, moderately dense, the color of tomatoes that have reached technical maturity is rich, deep pink.

Almost all tomatoes are approximately the same size, weighing up to 170 g (+/-20g).

The skin of the fruit is delicate, so care should be taken during transportation. Whole, undamaged fruits are stored for quite a long time without losing their attractive presentation. The main purpose of the hybrid is for seasonal fresh consumption and for salads.

Due to the large size of the fruit, it is not suitable for marinades, but it is excellent for aromatic juice and ketchup.

The ripening period of tomatoes from the date of the first shoots to harvest is 110 days, but the first pink fruits appear already on the 95-100th day, the variety is considered early ripening. You can collect unripe fruits and ripen them.

Productivity is 4-5 kg ​​per bush, which is approximately 18-20 kg per sq.m.
